3 Steps to Make

With Sass/SCSS, Compass and Lemonade’s CSS Sprites

I gave this talk at the awesame Railscamp 4. In my blog post Generate CSS Sprites on the Fly with Lemonade I gave more details about how to use lemonade for CSS sprites.

Part 1 shows SCSS/Sass with the possibility to use variables, color calculations, mix-ins and the brand new @extend syntax. In part 2 you’ll learn about CSS3 mix-ins provided by Compass and how-to use frameworks like blueprint. The 3rd part encourages you to use CSS sprites in every project with the help of the simple syntax of lemonade.
